Family Counselling in Liverpool
Unheard, misunderstood, confused, unsure, lost, desperate, feeling stuck, wanting to feel 'normal'. Any of these reasons and more can lead us to seek Counselling. I have been a therapist for 13 years, and practice in a Person-Centred way. What this means is, I truly believe when someone comes to see me they want to be listened to, not told it will be OK, or try this and do that. You have probably tried those things and still feel the same. What's needed is someone with the skill to help you navigate your feelings on a deeper level, to give you greater understanding of how you have come to feel the way you do.

Hi, I’m Jess, a neuroaffirming psychotherapist with specialism in neurodivergent women, ethical non-monogamy and neurodivergent relationships. If you’re struggling within your relationships or finding your neurodiversity is affecting how you manage life, I welcome you to a space that I hope you will find useful.

We all experience difficult times in our lives, suffering anxiety, depression, stress, anger, relationship issues, grief, bereavement, physical illness, emotional/physical abuse, low mood, and low motivation, to name just a few of the reasons people come to therapy. At times we will feel like we don’t want to ‘burden’ people with how we feel so we try to push through and carry on, we try to pretend all is ok, we try and cope by putting on a smile and a brave face, often we simply find we are unable to move forward and feel stuck.

Wondering how your thoughts and emotions shape your life? It can be confusing at times, leaving you feeling lost, misunderstood, or stuck in cycles you can't break.

At the heart of my practice is the belief that meaningful change happens through connection- when we feel truly seen and heard. Rather than offering advice or quick fixes, I work collaboratively with you to create a respectful, empowering therapeutic relationship where you feel safe to explore your current worries.

Talk about things you can’t discuss with family and friends?
I’m a Person-Centred counsellor/psychotherapist who works with clients from many walks of life. I see people with a range of health conditions and offer a space to really explore the impact of these on their life. I also work with grief and loss (not just bereavement but life losses eg divorce, empty nest etc), neurodiversity and finding your inner truth.

Hello, I'm Donna, an experienced and compassionate therapist with over 10 years in private practice. Whatever has brought you here, you've already taken an important first step by looking for support.
I believe everyone can benefit from therapy. Life can sometimes leave us feeling overwhelmed, stuck or disconnected from ourselves, whether through anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, low mood, identity struggles or other life challenges. You don't have to face these experiences alone.
I can't change what has happened, but I can walk alongside you as you make sense of your experiences and move towards healing and growth.

Hiya, I’m Lennie.
I work with teenagers, young adults, and the grown-ups they’ve become. The ones who never quite fit the mould and are tired of pretending they do. I help teens carve out their identity in a world full of labels while supporting the parents and professionals navigating the chaos with them. Life with the people you care about should be something you enjoy, not just survive. Let’s face it, keeping your head down and pretending everything’s fine won’t get you anywhere. Together, we’ll tackle what you’ve been avoiding, rewrite the rules to suit you, rebuild your confidence, and create a life that finally fits.

Hi, I’m Angie and i'm glad you're here. I work with adults using Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy, which means I pay attention to the patterns and dynamics that shape how we relate to ourselves and others. I offer a safe, respectful and collaborative space to explore whatever brings you to therapy.
I understand how daunting it can feel to start therapy. It takes courage to look at the parts of ourselves that we keep hidden and may feel overwhelming or painful. But I also believe that going to the places we fear most can lead to the deepest growth and hold the biggest freedoms.

Hi I'm Michelle Richards, Creative arts Therapist /Drama Therapist. I provide services for people who would like to learn effective and creative ways to process their emotions.

Through private one to one sessions, group workshops or via online Programmes I will assist you to learn important themes and practical techniques which will enhance your Emotional Empowerment and your ability to relate to others.

Overwhelmed. Exhausted. Like your mind won’t quiet down, or like you’re masking just to get through the day. Maybe past experiences still show up in ways you didn’t expect. Maybe you’ve always felt a little different from everyone else, and you’re tired of pretending otherwise. Or maybe it’s your relationships that feel harder than they should like you’re not being fully seen, you simply don’t feel heard.
If any of this feels familiar, I can help.

I feel that reaching out to talk to someone can be difficult, we may feel a sense of the unknown and therefore I understand that the process may be challenging. On the other hand, you may have spoken to someone before or feel at ease. Either way, through our work together I feel you have the potential to grow, develop, heal and work towards achieving your goals. No experience or issue is too large for us to work through. Therapy provides a time and space for reflection, exploration, support and understanding that we may not readily have in our day to day lives. For this reason, I feel it can hold great value.

Are you feeling unfulfilled, like there is something bubbling inside of you that you can't quite put into words or get hold of? Are you open and curious to discovering what that is? Have you had enough with how life is right now and ready to step into change? Perhaps you have prioritised others for too long and want to step into the fullness that you are.
Note: Please know, the relationship in therapy is 75% of positive outcomes. My qualifications mean nothing if you don't feel like I get you. I encourage you to reach out and feel into the shared space we might create.

You may feel that you are coping with the demands of daily life, yet carry an inner sense of overwhelm, confusion, or a feeling that something essential is missing. Perhaps you appear capable on the outside but inwardly experience disconnection from yourself, difficulty trusting your own thoughts and decisions, repeating relationship patterns, anxiety, or a longing for a deeper sense of meaning and belonging. You may find yourself questioning who you are beneath the roles, expectations, and adaptations that have helped you survive, while sensing a quiet longing to reconnect with your true self and the life you were meant to live.

If you have found yourself here today, you may be struggling with feelings of low worth. You may be experiencing grief, anxiety, depression, disordered eating, self-harm or have questions about your past or present. Looking up at the mountain ahead of you can feel overwhelming.

What issues does family therapy help with?
Family therapy can help families navigate the complex dynamics of family life, including communication challenges and recurring conflict between family members. A therapist can help family members identify dysfunctional patterns in communication and develop healthier ways of relating. Family therapy may also be helpful during major life transitions or stressful events that affect the family system, such as grief, divorce, trauma, relocation, or a serious illness. In some cases, family therapy can support families coping with specific mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, alcohol or substance use disorders, and eating disorders. In these situations, therapy can provide education and support to family members, as well as to the individual with the mental health diagnosis.
How do I know if my family needs counselling?
Family therapy may be helpful if a family consistently struggles with conflict or communication in a way that affects daily life or relationships. It can also be beneficial when someone in the family is experiencing significant emotional or behavioural changes, such as a family member becoming aggressive, withdrawing, or struggling to cope after a traumatic event. Additionally, some concerns, such as addiction or eating disorders, may be especially important to address in the context of the family unit.
Who attends family counselling sessions?
Family counselling sessions are often attended by members of the immediate family, such as parents, caregivers, children, or siblings. However, other family members may attend when appropriate, including grandparents, stepparents, stepsiblings, or co-parents. Who attends may depend on the family’s needs, the therapist’s recommendations, and the goals of treatment.
Can family therapy be done online?
Family therapy can often be done online. Virtual sessions may be especially convenient when family members live in different locations, have busy schedules, or live in a rural area or part of the country where family therapists are less accessible. However, online therapy may not be the best fit for every family. In-person care may be more appropriate when there are safety concerns, severe conflict, limited privacy at home, or when young children have difficulty engaging through a screen.
What therapeutic approaches are used in family counselling?
Family therapy can take different forms, including systemic family therapy (exploring how individual actions affect the family), structural family therapy (uncovering the structure and relationship dynamics of the family unit), and attachment-based family therapy (focusing on how bonds between family members shape relationships). Family therapy may also include psychoeducation, which helps family members learn more about a mental health condition and how to respond to it more effectively.
How much does family therapy cost and is it covered by insurance?
Family therapy sessions, which typically last about 50 minutes to an hour, often range from around £75 to £150 or more, depending on factors such as location, therapist experience, session length, and practice setting. Family therapy often costs more than individual therapy because it involves multiple participants and more complex treatment planning. The NHS may cover family therapy, but access is often subject to local availability and waiting times. As a result, many families pay privately or use private health insurance or employee assistance benefits, if available. Before starting therapy, it is important to confirm how you will pay for sessions and whether family therapy is covered, which provider types are eligible, whether a referral is required, and whether there are limits on the number of sessions. ****
